BEAUTIFUL hotel, well decorated, comfortable suite. The sauna/pool is a welcomed bonus after a long bike ride. Breakfast is well rounded and delicious, the staff are friendly and attentive. They have a locked storage area for bicycles.

We (family of 2 adults, 2 teenagers) had a fantastic stay overall at La Marine. The hotel and apartments are beautifully decorated with sublime taste and quirky features. The pool is perfect to cool down after a hot day's sight-seeing, although it can get very busy if everyone is there at the same time. We'd booked for 5 nights and had to change apartments (from Cyclades) due to a low-pitch machine noise from the next-door bakery (that only I could hear so no else was affected!) but Caroline, the owner, went above and beyond to resolve issues and was kindness personified. We stayed 2 nights in no.3 (view over the river - perfect - although some might not like being by the road but you cannot hear a sound if you shut the double-glazed windows so it did not bother us) and 2 nights in Belle Etoile (duplex with 2 loos!). It was fun to try out these 3 apartments, each with their own style. They are all immaculately clean, have well-provisioned kitchenettes and beautiful bathrooms. No air-con but the fans were fine even in this heat. I would say the single beds for our teenagers were not as comfortable as they are used to but, for younger (lighter) children, it would not be an issue. The pool area and gardens are a delight and you can use the hotel facilities (breakfast costs extra but it's worth it to eat in there) and order drinks from the staff who will deliver wherever you are in the hotel! The staff are complete professionals, always smiling and helpful. Thank you!

Excellent hotel with superlative service.

Excellent hotel with superlative service.

We had a lovely two night stay whilst in the Loire Valley on our way south to the Dordogne. The hotel has ample parking and is beautifully decorated, with a cute little boutique shop next door. The staff were very charming, friendly and helpful, which really made the stay very pleasant. They were quick to deal with any requests and spoke excellent English. The hotel has a really good spa, which includes an indoor and outdoor pool, jacuzzi, sauna and Hammam as well as all the usual treatments and massages on offer. We had a couples massage and facial during our stay and spent the afternoon by the pool, so can highly recommend the spa - much needed relaxation after a few days on the road and visiting Châteaus. Breakfast is a simple affair, with the expected range of French breads, meats, cheeses, eggs and cereal - good fresh quality and plenty to fill up on. The room was a good size, with a nice garden view, comfy bed, generous bathroom and great air con. The only downside was the number of random steps between areas in the room, which we both managed to trip on numerous times! You’ll also need to carry luggage up the stairs to the room, so one to be prepared for - is not far and worth it for the character of the hotel. We would definitely stay here again as the hotel and staff are great and Montsoreau itself is a lovely town in a great location on the Loire!
